Abstract: In this paper we introduce a general class of lazy computation systems and define a natural program equivalence for them. We prove that if an extensionality condition holds of each of the operators of a computation system, then the equivalence relation is a congruence, so that the usual kinds of equality reasoning are valid for it. This condition is a simple syntactic one, and is easy to verify for the various lazy computation systems we have considered so far. We also give conditions under... (Update)
